Add a README to .pytest_cache directory #3519

@nicoddemus

Description

@nicoddemus

As discussed in #3286, we should add a quick README.md file explaining what's the purpose of the cache directory and how it can be configured in pytest.ini to point to somewhere else if desired.

Bonus points if we add a new PYTEST_CACHE_DIR environment variable to set this globally.
